Saw him in Las Vegas. He stopped the performance and looked at the female backup singers and said, "if you XXVBV" do not get your act together, I will replace with you the Supremes tomorrow.".
We were not impressed, in fact we got up and left.

I was young when he died. Always thought he was weird. Could not get over the story he slept with his mom until he was like 17.

Saw him twice in the Seventies. First time he was in his prime, it was great. Second time was near the end and was not so good as he was forgettin lyrics and seemed to be struggling. But, the 2001 space odyssey introduction never failed to get the party started. The camera flashes were like a modern day light show, never seen anything like it at the time!
Wisdom and Patience ...two very important virtues

Elvis died the summer before my senior year of high school. There were a lot of women that were tore up over his death. I can’t think of another singer whose death would trigger the level of grief that Elvis did. I was not a big Elvis fan but his voice was undeniable. Elvis appears to be strung out on something and half out of his mind. Up to the end though the gift that was his voice never failed him.

I had just returned from tech school at was stationed at home (Carswell AFB). We had an older female Filipino Sgt that cried and wailed for a week upon his death. I was just 17 and had never experienced anything like that before. I like Elvis, my Uncle kinda reminded me of him.
